Sunday, March 1, 2015

Tonight's picture was taken in February of 2006. I have been searching for these Valentine's photos for a while now. The reason I couldn't find them is that I stored them in my March of 2006 folder instead of February. In any case, this was what our first floor would look like around Valentine's Day. We would make hand decorated Valentine's together for Mattie's friends, classmates, and teachers. Mattie loved gluing and creating and he could spend a lot of time doing these kinds of projects. 





Quote of the day: Are the days of winter sunshine just as sad for you, too? When it is misty, in the evenings, and I am out walking by myself, it seems to me that the rain is falling through my heart and causing it to crumble into ruins. ~ Gustave Flaubert

It was another stellar weather day in Washington, DC. Grey, frigid, rainy, and toward the end of the day we had freezing rain. Everything became covered in ICE. Peter took some photos of our bushes. They look like big popsicles. 

Our rose bushes and cages that we put our tomatoes in are completely iced over! 

Typically this weather would bother me. Of course I am not in love with it but I would have to say I am so busy working on Foundation things, which leaves me glued to a desk that it really doesn't matter to me what kind of weather it is outside. For the most part I am so absorbed that I am not even paying attention anymore. Which isn't a good thing. I need more perspective and hope as March moves along and two conferences that we are attending will be over soon that I can begin to focus on ONE THING AT A TIME. Rather than many large projects simultaneously.
